We've hit a lot of different (Canadian) genres in #VIDtober 2: kids film, thriller, horror, and now, comedy? Yes, comedy! 1987's MR. NICE GUY is the type of (Canadian) 80's comedy we haven't seen since THE FUNNY FARM (not that FUNNY FARM)! Literally, since star Mike McDonald (not that Mike McDonald) and co-writer Mark Breslin are both in that movie as well! (Which was also Canadian.)
MR. NICE GUY goes a lot of places. From the Vietnam War to a store security guard to a contract Killer, McDonald plays a character that goes wherever the story takes him which, eventually, decides this should also be a love story between him and Jan Smithers (WKRP in Cincinnati). Does it all work? Does any of it work? What genre is it exactly? We explore, just enough so you might be able to log this one on Letterboxd. (or, if you truly want to watch the entirety of Mr. NICE GUY and do it right, check out our YouTube page!)
For this episode, Erica is live from the Cave, Ryan is also working a shift at Rybusters, his in-home video store, and Marc tries to woo a potential new sponsor, a company dear to his heart whom we hope is going to listen! Fingers crossed, because this podcast can't survive on late fees alone!
